Caribbean Rock Lobster Tail and Main Lobster Tail with broccoli and baked potato.
Randy G.

We had a great meal at Red Lobster. The food was great. I had the Caribbean Rock Lobster Tail and the Main Lobster Tail with broccoli and baked potato. My wife had the Walts Favorite Shrimp and Shrimp Alfredo, with a baked potato. The service was great. Our server Bradley was very attentive and made our experience very nice. We arrived around 5:30 or so and got seated right away. It was a great experience at this Red Lobster. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Under the table next to ours.

The food was hot and tasted good and the service was pretty fast. However, it was not clean. The table next to ours was filthy when we were sat, and the busser wiped the table with a dry cloth. A couple was sat at that table and asked for it to be wiped down, as it still had food all over it. The waiter came over with dry napkins and wiped the crumbs off. They ordered water and made the decision to leave, and the waters were still sitting there when we left half an hour later. Under that table was a gross pile that needed to be swept and on the other side of our table was a huge puddle with garbage stuck in it that did not get cleaned the whole time we were there. I told my husband it looked like a scene in a training where you need to identify all of the hazards in the room. I wouldn't return to this location even though the food was good due to how dirty it was.

Server also researched the ingredients of the tartar sauce. What really resonated with us, is that I left my cc with the check. Half way out the car, here comes running out is our server with my cc.

I love meatloaf and most of the time if that is on the menu that's what I order, so I eaten a lot of different meatloaf from other well established restaurants. But let me tell you that I have NEVER ate a meatloaf this scrumptious before. The Bison Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and caramelized onions and crispy fried onions on top 5 stars. There is only 2 Local Goat restaurants and they are both in TN. Please bring one to NC. As for the service it was excellent, very professional from start to finnish. Sercice could not have been better 5 stars again. Ambiance of the dinning room was awesome 5 stars again. I believe in tipping my waiter and usually tip more than most. But I can say with out a doubt I left the biggest tip I have ever left at restaurant at the Local Goat in Pigeon Forge TN.

WOW! So much food. A true southern experience lol. When we were walking in, a guy walking out said,…read more"I hope you're hungry because they have A LOT of food in there!" and he was not wrong. With every entree you get a salad, corn chowder, corn fritters, mashed potatoes, green beans, and a dessert. Not to mention the entrees are huge. I ordered grilled chicken because I was getting tired of fried chicken, and of course they give you two chicken breasts, not one lol. Service was extremely fast. There was a wait when we got there, but it was fine and we went to the old mill store and I bought some flour to make corn bread and white bread. You put your name on a list and they call you in over the intercom that you can hear from outside. Wait was about 30 minutes.

This place does the business for its tourists and locals alike. The operation moved effortlessly,…read morewith people constantly coming in and going out. The wait time wasn't super crazy considering how many people were waiting. The corn chowder that comes with your meal was pretty solid, as was the bread that is similar to hush puppies, except sweeter given the pancake batter it is made with. The salad was mid, nothing great, as was the Sprite. As a soda connoisseur, it was missing something and didn't hit as hard as a McDonald's Sprite with the carbonation and syrup ratio. As for the main courses and sides, the fried chicken wasn't seasoned well at all. Neither were the mashed potatoes. Would definitely get a baked potato next time. The coleslaw was great, as were the creamed corn and ribs. Would definitely order those again. The dessert that comes with the meals made this southern comfort meal worth it and left us fuller than we have been in quite some time. The blackberry cobbler came with a load of ice cream, which most places cheap you out on with the ratio. The service from our server was top tier. He stayed busy throughout the meal with multiple tables, yet remained attentive to us, constantly refilling my sweet tea and ensuring we had everything we needed. Great experience overall and a great operation, especially as we enjoyed the view overlooking the water.

Don't let the reviews scare you away! If we had listened to some of the reviews on Yelp and Google,…read morewe never would have tried this place--and that would have been a shame because we had a DELICIOUS dinner! We drove by Captain Jim's on the Parkway and immediately knew we wanted to try it. Then we checked the reviews... and honestly, they almost talked us out of it. We decided to take one for the team and give it a try anyway, and we are SO glad we did! As soon as you walk in, you'll definitely get that seafood smell, but it wasn't overpowering at all. If anything, it just made us even hungrier--and that's a good thing when you're walking into an all-you-can-eat seafood buffet! The buffet stayed stocked with hot, fresh food the entire time we were there. There were plenty of choices, including: Crab legs Baked fish Fried fish Two kinds of potatoes Corn Green beans Pot roast Chicken Ribs Fresh salad bar with lots of toppings and dressings Rolls Dessert, which they bring out after your meal and is included with the buffet! The baked cod was SO good. It had a delicious crust, wasn't overcooked, and had that perfect flaky-but-not-dry texture you want from baked fish. The crab legs were overflowing on the buffet the entire time we were there. They were super easy to crack open and incredibly sweet. Definitely a favorite! The mahi-mahi was cooked perfectly, and the fried fish had what I thought was the perfect batter-to-fish ratio--not a giant ball of breading hiding the fish. Our waitress was also wonderful. I believe her name was Sheda. She was warm, welcoming, and took the time to explain everything since it was our first visit. She really helped make our dinner a great experience. The restaurant itself was clean and had plenty of seating inside. I could definitely see the parking lot filling up quickly during busy times, but once inside, there was plenty of room. Overall, we are SO glad we ignored the reviews and tried Captain Jim's for ourselves. Sometimes you just have to make your own experience, and ours was a very good one. The food was hot, the buffet stayed stocked, the seafood was delicious, and the service was friendly. Would we go back? Absolutely! If you're in Pigeon Forge and considering Captain Jim's, I'd say give it a try and decide for yourself. We're glad we did!

Captain Jim's buffet was disappointing overall. The selection looked decent at first, with the…read moreusual seafood-buffet options, sides, and desserts, but too much of the food seemed like it had been sitting under the heat lamps for a while. Several items were lukewarm rather than hot, and the fried seafood had lost its crispness. The seafood itself was average at best and did not taste especially fresh. The buffet area also needed more attention. A few pans ran low and were not replenished quickly, while some serving stations looked messy during the meal. For the price, I expected better food quality, more consistent temperatures, and a fresher rotation of dishes. The staff were polite, and the restaurant has a casual, family-friendly atmosphere, but the buffet did not deliver enough value to justify the cost. With fresher food, cleaner stations, and quicker refills, it could be a much better experience.
